Bronzes Bathing €7,200.00 Whilst leafing through a book of photographs donated by my daughter Claire, I came across a Keystone Agency photo taken from behind of a little girl in a swimsuit, with a towel around her neck, going for a swim with a baby hippo. An unusual idea since, a priori, I have never heard of anyone who dreamt of sharing their swim with this animal known to be... View
Bronzes Dressage €16,000.00 Large, very graphic sculpture made at the Chapon art foundry. The little rider on the sidesaddle on the highest perched horse is confident. The eyes of the horses meet. Perhaps they wonder about their ability to jointly maintain the balance ? “Because Sophie’s companions are rarely alone and because their ability to establish harmonious and playful... View
Bronzes Anadyomene Venus €980.00 The hippopotamus quickly joined my bestiary as its curves were plastically attractive.

Just for fun, I also created small anthropomorphic Venuses. A warning, in... View
Bronzes The secret €4,400.00 A little girl whispers in the ear of her attentive horse, head to head.

The horse is in a stopping posture to better listen to the whispered secret. View
Bronzes Encounter €7,900.00 It’s a fairly old piece that I haven’t shown much. However, it is very emotional. Each on their planet, how to meet despite obstacles? Yet the horses' muzzles almost touch, stretched towards each other. It is the animal in us, which dares before us. View
Museum acquisitions My favourite Merens €4,400.00 This sculpture was acquired by the Musée de l’Outil du Val d’Oise in Wit Dit Joli Village. In 2020, I exhibited around ten large sculptures in the museum's Remarkable Garden and this smallest piece found a place in one of its rooms. I was inspired by the Merens, a powerful Pyrenean animal contrasting with the fragility of the little girl. Merens,... View
Bronzes Nice and warm! €4,200.00 I wanted to express the little girl’s tenderness for her horse. She takes care of him, covers him, “envelopes” him to better preserve him. An opportunity for me to play with the patina, ranging from brown ocher to rich red ocher close to the appearance of the original clay. Creation 2019 for Lille Art’up View
